Herbes De Provence Seed & Nut Crackers
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cup mixed raw, unsalted nuts and seeds*
- 2 tbsp heaped tbs nutritional yeast**
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
- 1/2-3/4 tsp fine salt
- 2 tsp heaped tsp herbes de provence (or mixed dried herbs of choice***)
- 1 medium egg or equivalent vegan ‘egg’ such as Orgran
- 1 1/2 tbsp water
- poppy seeds, to sprinkle sesame seeds, to sprinkle
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 150C/300F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or Silpat.
- Coarsely grind the nuts and seeds in your blender or food processor. You want a nubbly mix that is just beginning to clump together. I found it best to whiz on a medium speed and then pulse once it was evenly chopped but not small enough to use as dough.
- Pour the ‘dough’ into a mixing bowl. Crumble with your fingers to break up any lumps then stir in the dry ingredients. Take a pinch to test for seasoning, adjusting as needed.
- Stir in the egg/vegan egg and the water; mix to form a stiff dough.
- Roll out as thinly as you can between two pieces of parchment paper. The ones in the photos are not as thin as they can go but they will be more snappy if you go further. Top with the extra seeds, slightly pressing them on.
- Cut into strips or cut out into shapes. Transfer to your lined baking tray and bake in the center of the oven for 30 minutes. For further crispness, use a spatula to lift the baked crackers onto a baking rack and return to the oven (lowest shelf) for a further five minutes. This will pull out any residual moisture from the bottom of the cracker.
- Allow to cool completely before storing in a sealed container.
